Development of an Industry 4.0-Based Analytical Method for the Value Stream Centered Optimization of Demand-Driven Warehousing Systems
In real life situations, the material handling strategy of on-site storage systems is usually determined during the design of the storage system, which is no longer reviewed later. The strategy is typically determined by the person(s) designing the storage system, without the use of scientific metho...
